Is your system running Redhat 7.x? I'm running Redhat 7.3 at home and
Redhat 7.1 on the BLU server. On Monday evening I installed 3.3 on my
home machine from the source rpm, and it tested fine. I installed on
the BLU server after that, and it worked fine there, aside from a minor
keyboard error where I accidentally nuked my login shell before restarting
the daemon.
